Can i drink alcohol while taking bactrim and if not, when can i drink alcohol after finishing bactrim?

Alcohol while taking: Although modest alcohol use doesn't reduce the effectiveness of most antibiotics, it can reduce your energy and delay how quickly you recover from illness. So, it's a good idea to avoid alcohol until you finish your antibiotics and are feeling better.
